Screen size

katbuad · 06-16-2008, 06:51 PM

Kristie, was hoping that you might have a suggestion. . .

Since the upgrade the thread screens are larger than my moniter size on my work computer. I have to use a bottom scroll bar and go across to view the entire message. When I scroll across I can no longer see the poster's information/stats.

When I am at home, everything fits perfectly to the screen so I know that it is just my work computer. I can't really call the IT Help desk and ask them to fix the problem (

uh yes I would like to place a work order to resize my monitor screen. I can't seem to view my favorite forum very well anymore. . . don't think that would go over very well). So I was hoping that you might have some suggestions.

Try looking into your monitor's resolution settings. I'm not sure which operating system you're running. But if you're on a windows machine, just go to your control panel and select Display. If you're on VISTA this feature is underneath Personalization. A shortcut is to right click on your desktop and select Display (or Personalization). You likely need to increase the resolution of your monitor (to at least 1024x768).

yea, it has to do with the resolution...are you on a windows or mac at work?

That's it! Changed to 1024x768 on my windows computer here at work and now the threads fit to the screen. Sorry to be such a techno cavewoman. Appericate the assistance!
